Preference Master and Hierarchy

When you determine that you have a consistent business requirement that differs from the system's default values for sales order processing, you can set up preferences to accommodate those requirements.

The system displays preferences in logical groups on the Preference Profiles form. You use the Preference Master Revision form to specify where a preference appears on this form and whether effective dates and quantities are a part of the preference.

For each preference, you must define a hierarchy to indicate the order in which you want the system to apply preferences to sales orders.
